Paint Correction
Paint correction is a process used to restore and rejuvenate the paintwork of a vehicle by removing imperfections like swirl marks, light scratches, oxidation, and other defects that dull the surface. This is done through careful polishing and compounding to level the paint, bringing back a smooth, glossy finish. Paint correction is needed because over time, exposure to the elements, improper washing, and general wear can damage a car's paint, making it look aged and worn. Correcting these imperfections not only enhances the car's appearance but also prepares it for protection, like wax or ceramic coatings, which helps maintain the finish and extend the life of the paint.
Paint correction addresses a variety of surface imperfections on your vehicle's paint, including:
Swirl marks caused by improper washing or drying techniques.
Light scratches from road debris or brushing against objects.
Oxidation, which makes the paint appear dull and faded due to sun exposure.
Water spots or etching caused by acid rain, bird droppings, or tree sap.
Holograms left by poor buffing or polishing techniques.
By removing these defects, paint correction restores the paint’s clarity, depth, and shine, leaving your vehicle looking polished and refreshed.
Spider webbing
This is the slang term for the swirl marks that are embedded into the clear coat of paint. It’s usually the direct result of circular washing with variable-speed abrasive towels or soaps or using automated car washes frequently.
Fine scratches
Scratches can occur for several
reasons – from that “asshat” who keyed your car, to
excessive exposure to blowing sand and wind.
Water spots
While it’s assumed that water spots are simply a cosmetic inconvenience, they can lead to damage due to frequent exposure to direct sunlight. Water that contains salt or other types of road grime can slowly eat away at the clear coat. Add excessive exposure to direct sunlight – and you’ve got some serious paint damage approaching.
Animal droppings
Those damn birds, squirrels, and other critters don’t consider where to release their waste. While it’s a major inconvenience to wash animal droppings from your car, failure to do so quickly can cause damage to the clear coat; due to acids in animal waste eating away.
Inexperienced detailers
Yeah! Finally, get to blame those who many believe overcharge for paint correction services. Truth is – there are some in this industry that shouldn’t – who use cheap high-speed machine polishers to detail customer’s cars.
